Determining rock elastic parameters using a new true-triaxial-based technique

, 2021
: Rock elastic parameters (e.g., elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio) are the most critical design features in geotechnical engineering since intact and rock masses generally respond in an elastic fashion up to the yield point when under complex three ...

Uncovering hidden bias in neutron diffraction residual strain measurements

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates that diffraction‐based residual strain calculations and uncertainty estimates depend on how grain populations are sub‐sampled, with important implications for interpreting residual stresses in heterogeneous materials with fine‐scale microstructure and strain gradients.When calculating residual strain via neutron or X‐ray ...

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Cambridge True Triaxial Apparatus

, 1988
In true triaxial apparatus, samples of soil are subjected to three independent principal stresses and strains. Such apparatus can readily be used for controlled exploration of principal stress or principal strain space toprovide information concerning ...

Characterization of asphalt concrete by multi-stage true triaxial testing

, 2005
The feasibility of an existing servo-controlled true triaxial (cubical) apparatus for evaluating the mechanical response of nominal 4-in. cubical specimens of asphalt concrete (AC) under multi-axial stress states has been investigated.

Assessments of Liquefaction Triggering and Manifestation at Three Case History Sites in Napier Based on 1931 Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, Earthquake

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.

Acoustic characterization of crack damage evolution in sandstone deformed under conventional and true triaxial loading [PDF]

, 2017
We present a comparative study of crack damage evolution in dry sandstone under both conventional (σ1 > σ2 = σ3), and true triaxial (σ1 > σ2 > σ3) stress conditions using results from measurements made on cubic samples deformed in three orthogonal ...

STELLAR‐CB: Synthetic Temporal LSTM for Livestock Activity Recognition—Cow Behaviour

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study introduces a novel framework combining LSTM networks with SMOTE to address class imbalance in precision livestock farming. It improves the detection of rare behaviours in livestock, achieving state‐of‐the‐art performance while reducing computational overhead, offering a practical, breed‐agnostic solution for enhancing automated behaviour ...

Tracing Hailstone Development: Isotopic Evidence and Microphysical Variability in Texas Supercell Events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Two supercell thunderstorms that occurred in Del Rio and Burkburnett, Texas in the spring of 2020 produced greater than 5 cm diameter hailstones. Fourteen hailstones, eight from Del Rio and six from Burkburnett, were cut in half along the maximum principal axis. Half the hailstone was dissected at 0.5 cm increments, providing 198 subsamples of

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...
